Artists Of Texas Contemporary Paintings and Art

Cottage Rose Garden Oil on Panel This oil painting is framed in a beautiful gold frame. The paint is applied with a palette knife and brush....so there is variety in the texture. One of my favorite things about this painting is the rooftop, which has layers of oils built up using the palette knife.  The roses in the foreground are also painted with thick paint.   I hope that this colorful landscape painting takes the viewer to a pleasant place.... maybe England...maybe a countryside cottage.   Thanks for viewing....kay@kwyne.com I will be back in the studio today....Kay

Coronado Island Sunset Arbor by Nancy Medina SOLD 16X12 Oil on Archival Panel Purchase Information Flower Painting Workshops Nancy Medina Web Site Follow Me on Facebook Coronado Island Sunset Arbor is almost as much a watercolor application of oils as it is a traditional oil painting. I love experimenting with transparent paints, and staining my canvas in blocks of light, color and shape. Letting those transparent paints shine through, without covering them, can give your painting a feeling of depth. Today I am in one of the most beautiful places in California, Coronado Island. Rest assured my camera battery is charged, and I've got my comfy walking shoes on - first things first, we stop somewhere for excellent fish tacos, then we grab our flower show map to start tracking down and photographing all the top award winning gardens and cottages. The 88th Annual Flower Show is in full swing in Spreckles Park, and we'll have the morning light before my ...

Cherry Lane Rose Cottage by Nancy Medina 14X14 Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas Purchase Information Nancy Medina Web Site Cherry Lane Rose Cottage is a new small work in the studio, as I finish work on a large commission of red daisies and sunflowers. I've shared a few of the amazing flowers of Coronado, California, an island just off the coast of San Diego on my art blog today , including the pale purple roses of the cottage gardens there. You can still find traces of an older time here, before the city encroached, and the older homes that are lovingly preserved and surrounded by beds of flowers of every variety. It's flower heaven on earth! Check out my new Texas workshops!

Sun Swept Cottage Path  by Nancy Medina 14X14 Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas Purchase Information Nancy Medina Web Site Sun Swept Cottage Path is a new painting in Flower Mound Studio, as I package up a 48X48 hydrangea for a client in Texas. Sometimes I depend on my imagination to fill in details for my paintings, and in this painting I added a trellis to the bottom rungs of the archway. I also changed the color of the background house from sky blue to a muted gray, since I wanted to put some sky blue in the fence in the foreground. I took several pictures of this painting and studied the images on my camera viewfinder to make a few final corrections, then took the final photos for the blog. This painting is one more memento based on my visit to Coronado, California. You'll see more in the days to come, so stay tuned to my art blog !
